London, Nov. 10: Men believe that the perfect girlfriend is the one who has a high sex drive, enjoys a hearty meal and gets ready to go out in 10 minutes.
Apart from this, the perfect girlfriend is a career-minded woman who earns more than her partner but at the same time wants to stay at home and bring up the children.
The clue to these seemingly contradictory demands lies in the men polled, 3,000 bachelors. Near the top of their girlfriend checklist is the requirement that she should have a “pert bottom” — which may explain why they are still single. And while three-quarters of the men polled said their ideal woman would keep her weight in check, 89 per cent also wanted her to tuck into a big meal without worrying. These ladies will have luscious long hair, be skinny and trim and confident enough to don no make-up.
“While many women might find these standards hard to live up to, six in 10 men firmly believe their perfect girlfriend is out there somewhere. However, there are a few contradictions which might make it hard for them to get their ideal date,” the Daily Express quoted Ms Nicole Clowes, spokeswoman for UKDating.com, hich carried out the poll, as saying.
“There aren’t many women who can tuck into a mountain of food every day and stay skinny. There is some confusion about whether men would like to date a high earner or someone who stays at home with the children.” The ability to hold an intelligent conversation isn’t a big concern — 61 per cent of men prefer someone who likes a laugh and a joke.
